Civilians continue fleeing El Fasher to Tawila, 55 kilometers west, as security, food, water, and medicine remain scarce amid a brutal siege.
The International Organization for Migration reported 1,070 people displaced from El Fasher between Sunday and Monday, closely monitoring the humanitarian situation.
Adam Rijal, spokesperson for Darfur Refugees and Displaced Persons Coordination Office, said 346 families, totaling 1,298 individuals, have arrived in Tawila seeking safety.
Most displaced are children, women, and the elderly, facing severe shortages of water, food, shelter, and essential healthcare, Rijal said.
Three newly arrived families reported urgent needs for food, drinking water, medicine, and access to primary healthcare services amid ongoing insecurity.
Mohammed Yousef Tor described walking six days to Tawila with his nine family members, including severely malnourished children, after being beaten during the escape.
Halima Ismail stressed displaced families are exposed to cold and sun without shelter, with infants only months old, highlighting the humanitarian emergency.
Doctors Without Borders confirmed admitting over 150 patients last Sunday, including 49 women and 28 children under fifteen, many in extreme exhaustion.
Medical teams have deployed ambulances to triage emergencies, transfer critically injured patients, and erected two additional tents for urgent surgeries.
The organization continues operating at full capacity to care for the wounded and displaced amid escalating humanitarian crises in North Darfur.
According to IOM statistics from August, Tawila now hosts more than 600,000 displaced people from El Fasher and surrounding villages, straining local resources.
